Default Cb wiring- External Speaker.

Ok so i got my cb installed and i bought a 100watt external speaker for the pa function. I got it installed and it works great. Now a buddy of mine has the same speaker hooked up to his head unit with out the cb though, so he can play music outside. I went to hook mine up the same as his and i ran into some trouble. For some reason i cant hook up both to the ex. speaker at the same time. If i unplug the back of the cb the music plays fine and if i unhook from the amp the pa works fine. Is there a way to hook up both at once? And do i need to run a 3 way switch instead of running 2 2way switches?

The 3way would probably sound better in a story. JK, it would be on, on, off? Would let you toggle between the two...
